Bulldog ONLY Trade News

Played a straight bat and gave away nothing.

He said a lot without saying anything at all.

So which was it?

AFL website says Sam Power will be on trade radio at 1pm. Would love a summary from anyone who is able to listen in!

Played a straight bat and gave away nothing.

*Bailey Smith - Looking for a lot more - when pressed what that is said just looking for a lot.
* Macrae - No chats with Saints at this stage. Unless it suits Dogs, won't be giving him away
* Caleb Daniel - No indication from his management about staying or going.
* XOH - No comment, he is a contracted player
* Looking at athletic mids
* Pick 13 - If we don't get that, we are open to trading for other opportunities to get into round 1
* Dan Housten - I missed exactly what he said.

List managers, media members and player managers alike would all hate how close Sam keeps his cards to his chest. I'm starting to think he's stitched his eyelids to his forehead because the man does not blink, or give even the slightest of hints as to what he's thinking. It's hilarious

I ended up being able to listen and it was very funny how they crossed back to the hosts who immediately slammed him for being boring and not giving them anything to talk about.

Stupid Sam Power doing his job, rather than creating #content about who he thinks is #gettable.

Edit: just realised the hosts are Tom Morris and Dan Hanneberry who both famously love the Bulldogs.

Sadly we don't have any hand. Uncontracted puts us in a beggar position.

Sadly we don't have any hand. Uncontracted puts us in a beggar position.

There were rumours about hawks offering pick 5 for him last year. You wonder what, if any, offers we had and what we may have knocked back.

If the Saints trade of Jack Macrae doesn't happen, would he still play for us? I have no doubt that he has been told he may not get to play in the position he wants this season, but still hoping he remains with us.

I hate this time of year; Jack should be a Bulldog for life.

He is contracted. He doesn't have a choice. If we don't trade him. He will play in the red, white and blue.

"We are waiting on an answer from Caleb Daniel, he has plenty to think about. We think we can provide him with an ideal playing position." - Brady Rawlings, North Melbourne List Manager

"Ivan is a contracted player and there' a fair bit of work to do. Exactly the same with Jack Macrae. We have run a dual narrative with the draft and trade. We will go to the Draft again this year." - David Misson, St Kilda GM of Footy

Thanks. What's the ratio of ads to content during the podcast? Can't be worse than the live product.

One or two adds at the start then zero until the end. The only way to listen.

Approach a famously tight lipped list manager for an interview, be shocked and upset said list manager gives nothing away. Really stunned the two Einstein's in Morris and Hannebery
